Bob Filner Wins Mayoral Slot

Mayor Filner still needs voter approval

Possible growth for SD after years of corruption

After voter confirmation in November, Filner will still need at least one or two news media (newspapers, magazines, radio, television) that are not staunchly anti-Democrat. There are currently no news media not in control of staunchly conservative, fascist, radical, goose-stepping (Nazi) Republicans. I call thisgroup the SCURR, the Super-Conservative Ultra-Rich Republicans. To make matters even worse, the voters approved a curb on city contracts with labor unions, and elected one more Republican City Council member! Talk about stupid!

My tack is that stupidity is not what San Diegans are all about, just brainwashed by the Republican News Media. I call for the Democrats or Labor to at least buy one radio station, perhaps a Tijuana station, to broadcasttruthful news.People who work union make twice as much money, lifetime, and without labor unions everyone would make Minimum Wage, including doctors and lawyers. The awful evils of George W. Bush, in harming the unions and putting small business out of business still haunt us today, and for the foreseeable future.

Religion Causes Homelessness

Most real estate and related owned by them

(Sales, Insurance, Mortgages, and Construction) = Housing Extortion

Religion causes homelessness by setting up the process where people accept having to come up with huge amounts of money each month to pay rent or a house payment. What lunatic would spend 70% of everything they earn each week, just for a custom cage called a home or apartment? People living on the sidewalk, and destitute, tell the visual story to everyone that you need to come up with that huge housing payment or be a zero. Graphic illustration of failure, maintained by the same people who bring you the Housing Extortion business.

You can afford 15% of your income for housing, and no more! This is generally about two days' work a month. To pay $1,000 a month rent, you need to earn at least $30 an hour. On Minimum Wage, $8 an hour, you can afford $200 a month rent, and not a penny more! Do we bring salaries in line with rent prices, or rent prices in line with salaries?

Minimum Wage should be based by city, depending upon its cost of living. The Minimum Wage in San Diego should be $30 an hour full-time, or $45 an hour part-time. Let us inject a tiny bit of reality into the economic picture! San Diego needs huge, big government, powerful labor unions, and rent control.

School Scams Continue

Thousands Get Educations But No Jobs

Medical, Dental, Technical Training a Job Scam

Ads give people the idea that they can get a good job after completing training as a medical, technical, dental or other professional assistant, but most get no job except the fake "shill" job that is actually part of the training after graduation. The wages are paid out of tuition. The government and non-profits pay money to the school in grants and scholarships, plus the student forks over cash, too. Very few actually get a permanent career. And, the hundreds of schools cranking out trained personnel causes the wages for same to go way down.

Lawyers do not even have work after law school, as anybody at California Western School of Law or Thomas Jefferson School of Law in San Diego can tell you.

Unemployment Rises to 9% as Wars Wind Down

Military Layoffs in 3 wars produces record-high Unemployment in San Diego

50% of all San Diegans looking for work

The Unemployment Rate, a measure of how many more people lost jobs than found them in the past few months, is the number of NEW unemployed, not the total unemployed, of course. Halfof all SD residents are either not employed or are under-employed, such as the college professor sweeping floors atTaco Bell. There is, however, a lot of money to be had writing resumes for people, teaching job skills, and other "sucker" stuff making people think they have some chance at a good job here.

How to Get SSI Checks

$1,000 a Month IF you APPLY for it

Everyone qualifies as "Bipolar Mentally Handicapped"

First, apply for welfare, which is called General Relief. Then, ask San Diego County for specialists and lawyers to help you get SSI from the Federal Government. Third, find any free doctor, at Father Joe's, or CMS clinic, or First Lutheran Medical, and ask for an appointment to see a psychiatrist. Tell the shrink you think you might have Bipolar Disease (formerly called Manicdepression) and fromthere, you wait 3 months receiving paltry welfare and nothing more. Once your SSI check arrives, however, they give you back-payments, so it is thousands of dollars. And, around $1,000 a month for life, in addition to bus and trolley discounts (a monthly pass for just $18.00)

Tijuana Homes Rent For $60/Month

Nice Homes, Apartments Very Cheap!

Suckers pay much more for the same apartment

If you stay away from the paid sucker-finders, who find suckers to rent for $200 a month, you can save a lot of money by living in Tijuana, where nobody pays more than $100 a month rent, unless they are a fool. And, you no longer need a passport to cross the border, nor any papers to live there. Many fine hotels can be had for $6 to $8 per night, even though their advertised price is 10 times that. Nobody pays the ridiculous asking price on the billboard, except stupid sucker tourists!

A problem is that border crossing used to take 2 or 3 hours, but that is down to 45 minutes most of the time, except of course, Sunday afternoons and evenings (4 hours). Most people in Tijuana were deported after a long time in the US and speak English very well. Taxi service (except expensive Yellow Cab) costs about a dollar to go anywhere in Tijuana, and a bottle of Corona or Pacifico (or Tecate) beer in a bar or restaurant can be 75 cents. Domestic servants can be had for Mexican Minimum Wage, 30 cents an hour. Prostitution is legal and regulated for disease control, the union scale being $40 a half hour, but non-union $10 per half hour.

So, there may be solutions to your problem of not having much money that can be resolved by using Tijuana. One other thing, the crime rate is not much different nor more dangerous than San Diego, provided you have nothing to do with dope or guns. Many tourists are killed each year, but nearly all of them tested positive for heroin, cocaine, ecstacy, or similar.
